First Quarter 2021 Results

The Company's first quarter of 2021 net income attributable to Churchill Downs Incorporated was $36.1 million compared to net loss attributable to Churchill Downs Incorporated of $23.4 million in the prior year quarter. The Company's first quarter of 2021 net income from continuing operations was $36.1 million compared to net loss from continuing operations of $22.6 million in the prior year quarter. We do not have any noncontrolling interest as of the first quarter of 2021 compared to a net loss attributable to our noncontrolling interest of $0.1 million in the prior year quarter.

The following items impacted the comparability of the Company's first quarter net income from continuing operations:

  • $14.0 million after-tax expense decrease related to our equity portion of the non-cash change in fair value of Rivers Casino Des Plaines ("Rivers Des Plaines") interest rate swaps;
  • $12.0 million non-cash after-tax impact related to our intangible asset impairment from the first quarter of 2020 that did not recur in the first quarter of 2021; and
  • $1.0 million after-tax expense decrease related to lower transaction, pre-opening and other expenses.
  • Partially offset by a $0.9 million after-tax increase in Rivers Des Plaines' legal reserves and transaction costs.

Excluding these items, first quarter 2021 net income from continuing operations increased $32.6 million primarily due to the following:

  • $33.4 million after-tax increase driven by the results of our operations and equity income from our unconsolidated affiliates.
  • Partially offset by $0.8 million after-tax increase in interest expense associated with higher outstanding debt balances.

Segment Results

During the first quarter of 2021, we updated our operating segments as follows:

  • We changed the Churchill Downs segment to the Live and Historical Racing segment to facilitate the realignment of our new HRM facilities - Oak Grove Racing, Gaming & Hotel ("Oak Grove"), Newport Racing & Gaming ("Newport"), and Turfway Park from All Other to this segment. The Live and Historical Racing segment now includes Churchill Downs Racetrack, Derby City Gaming, Oak Grove, Turfway Park, and Newport.
  • We renamed the Online Wagering segment to the TwinSpires segment to facilitate the realignment of our retail sports betting results at our wholly-owned casinos from our Gaming segment to the TwinSpires segment.

The summaries below present net revenue from external customers and intercompany revenue from each of our reportable segments:

Live and Historical RacingFirst Quarter
(in millions)2021 2020
    
Net revenue$64.7  $29.1 
Adjusted EBITDA18.3  1.0 

For the first quarter of 2021, net revenue increased $35.6 million from the prior year quarter primarily due to a $19.4 million increase at Oak Grove as a result of the opening of the HRM facility in September 2020 and the hotel in October 2020, an $11.3 million increase from Derby City Gaming primarily due to the temporary suspension of operations in March 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 global pandemic and the completion of their second outdoor patio which added an additional 225 HRMs in September 2020, a $4.4 million increase at Newport due to the opening in October 2020, and a $0.5 million increase from other sources.

Adjusted EBITDA increased $17.3 million in the first quarter of 2021 from the prior year quarter due to a $8.9 million increase from Derby City Gaming due to the increase in net revenue, increased operating efficiencies, and the temporary closure of the property in March 2020, a $6.6 million increase at Oak Grove due to the opening of the HRM facility in September 2020, a $0.8 million increase at Turfway Park due to an increase in handle, a $0.7 million increase at Newport due to the opening in October 2020, and a $0.3 million increase at Churchill Downs Racetrack primarily due to the temporary suspension of operations in March 2020.

TwinSpiresFirst Quarter
(in millions)2021 2020
    
Net revenue$100.1  $69.4 
Adjusted EBITDA22.5  16.0 

For the first quarter of 2021, net revenue increased $30.7 million from the prior year quarter primarily due to a $26.1 million increase from Horse Racing and a $4.6 million increase from Sports and Casino. Horse Racing net revenue increased as a result of an increase in handle of $113.3 million, or 34%, compared to the prior year quarter due to the continued shift from wagering at brick-and-mortar locations to online wagering. Sports and Casino net revenue increased as a result of our expansion in additional states since the first quarter of 2020 and increased marketing and promotional activities.

Adjusted EBITDA increased $6.5 million in the first quarter of 2021 from the prior year quarter primarily due to a $9.9 million increase from Horse Racing due to an increase in handle, partially offset by a $3.4 million increase in the loss from Sports and Casino due to increased marketing and promotional activities.

GamingFirst Quarter
(in millions)2021 2020
    
Net revenue$154.0  $147.4 
Adjusted EBITDA82.4  47.9 

For the first quarter of 2021, net revenue increased $6.6 million primarily due to a $7.3 million increase at Fair Grounds and VSI, a $5.2 million increase at Ocean Downs, and a $5.0 million increase at our Mississippi properties, all of which resulted from the temporary suspension of operations in March 2020. Partially offsetting these increases were a $4.4 million decrease at Oxford, a $3.2 million decrease at Presque Isle, a $2.4 million decrease at Lady Luck Nemacolin, and a $0.9 million decrease at Calder, all of which resulted from certain operating restrictions.

Adjusted EBITDA increased $34.5 million for the first quarter of 2021 from the prior year quarter driven by a $24.1 million increase at our wholly-owned Gaming properties and a $10.4 million increase from our equity investments, both of which were due to increased operating efficiencies and the temporary closure of all of our Gaming properties in March 2020.

All Other

For the first quarter of 2021, All Other Adjusted EBITDA decreased $3.0 million driven by a $4.4 million increase in accrued bonuses at Corporate compared to prior year where accrued bonuses were reduced as a result of the temporary suspension of operations in March 2020. Partially offsetting this decrease was a $1.4 million increase from Arlington due to increased operating efficiencies and the temporary suspension of operations in March 2020.

Investors and other interested parties may listen to the teleconference by accessing the online, real-time webcast and broadcast of the call at http://ir.churchilldownsincorporated.com/events.cfm, or by dialing (877) 372-0878 and entering the pass code 6449063 at least 10 minutes before the appointed time.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to the results provided in accordance with GAAP, the Company also uses non-GAAP measures, including adjusted net income, adjusted diluted EPS, EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) and Adjusted EBITDA.

The Company uses non-GAAP measures as a key performance measure of the results of operations for purposes of evaluating performance internally. These measures facilitate comparison of operating performance between periods and help investors to better understand the operating results of the Company by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the Company's core business or operating results. The Company believes the use of these measures enables management and investors to evaluate and compare, from period to period, the Company’s operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. The non-GAAP measures are a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income or diluted EPS (as determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our operating results.

We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate segment performance, develop strategy and allocate resources. We utilize the Adjusted EBITDA metric to provide a more accurate measure of our core operating results and enable management and investors to evaluate and compare from period to period our operating performance in a meaningful and consistent manner. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or as an alternative to any other measure provided in accordance with GAAP. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may be different from the calculation used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited.

Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS exclude discontinued operations net income or loss; net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interest; changes in fair value for interest rate swaps related to Rivers Des Plaines; Rivers Des Plaines' legal reserves and transaction costs; transaction expense, which includes acquisition and disposition related charges, Calder racing exit costs, as well as legal, accounting, and other deal-related expense; pre-opening expense; and certain other gains, charges, recoveries, and expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA includes the Company's portion of EBITDA from our equity investments.

Adjusted EBITDA excludes:

  • Transaction expense, net which includes:
    • Acquisition and disposition related charges; and
    • Other transaction expense, including legal, accounting, and other deal-related expense;
  • Stock-based compensation expense;
  • Rivers Des Plaines' impact on our investments in unconsolidated affiliates from:
    • The impact of changes in fair value of interest rate swaps and
    • Legal reserves and transaction costs;
  • Asset impairments;
  • Legal reserves;
  • Pre-opening expense; and
  • Other charges, recoveries and expenses.

For segment reporting, Adjusted EBITDA includes intercompany revenue and expense totals that are eliminated in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Refer to the Reconciliation of Comprehensive Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA included herewith for additional information.
